Another example of an outside bet is the odd an even numbers. These bets do play on even money even though the odds that they would actually come out are a little lesser. Placing a bet between the numbers one and eighteen is also another example of an outside bet. The alternative bet on the other hand is the numbers between nineteen and thirty six. Both of these bets make use of even money. The odds of this may also come a little bit lesser, even lesser than fifty percent.

The next category of the roulette board in the inside bet. This bet involves placing a wager on single or small number groups. These kind of bet do have a much higher pay off as compared to the outside bet, however, some of the odds can be much worst. The pay outs may vary in every casino, however, most casinos pay thirty five to one, if you happen to pick a up a single winning number.
European roulette boards do have a single green number which is presented by the number 0. On the other hand, the American roulette board has two green spaces which are represented by the number 0 and 00. Both may have a slight difference when it comes to the odds. The European roulette board is quite advantageous than that of the American one.
